People are asking me all the time what I do with the pulp that is left over when I make fresh nutmilk. Well, usually I freeze or dry it but this time I came up with a really quick and easy cake recipe (I made it at 7am so it was literally just throwing together some ingredients) —Lisa Muller

Oh, super! Is the pulp you're using here just strained and still damp?
